Have you ever felt like you were trapped inside a prison within yourself? Have you ever wondered why you constantly make unhealthy choices you know are not good for you? Do you wonder why no matter how hard you try to break free from certain unhealthy relationships, habits, and environments, you always tend to return to them? Do you fear rejection? Are you afraid of abandonment? Has your heart been pierced by the sharp blade of betrayal? Do you have an unhealthy need for acceptance? Have you been continually degraded, looked over, stepped on, ostracized, forgotten, or made to feel as if you were insignificant? Are you terrorized by shame? Paralyzed by fear? Terrified of death? Tormented by guilt or imprisoned by the hardness of pride and long to be set free? If so, then I do believe this book is for you! I think you will be able to relate in your own unique way to the creative communication in this book and find hope, encouragement, and freedom. I do not claim to be the one who is able to set you free, but I can lead you to the One who can and so longs to! Like you, I am an imperfect human being, and I have experienced firsthand the torment and misery these things can inflict upon the human soul. I have experienced how, out of deep wounds, these things can manipulate our thoughts, feelings, and volition and destroy our relationships and even ourselves. I know what it is like to feel all alone and like no one truly understands the hell that's being experienced on the inside daily. You may even be in the grips of depression and feeling like your soul is fading into a black hole of hopelessness and despair at this moment, but I want to let you know that there is hope and freedom for you! There is One who is able and willing to bring your soul out of prison!

This is the extended and annotated edition including * an extensive biographical annotation about the author and his life In any commentary on a portion of the Old Testament by a writer unacquainted with Hebrew, exact criticism, and freedom from mistake, must not be expected. But the Psalms have been so in the mouth and in the heart of God’s people in all languages, that it has been necessary often to find an explanation suitable to imperfect translations. And no doubt it is intended that we should use such explanations for the purpose of edification, when we are unable to be more accurate, though in proving doctrine it is necessary always to remember and allow for any want of acquaintance with the original, or uncertainty with respect to its actual meaning. However, the main scope and bearing of the text is rarely affected by such points as vary in different translations, and the analogy of the faith is sufficient to prevent a Catholic 4 mind from adopting any error in consequence of a text seeming to bear a heterodox meaning. Perhaps the errors of translation in the existing versions may have led the Fathers to adopt rules of interpretation ranging too far from the simple and literal; but having such translations, they could hardly use them otherwise. Meanwhile St. Augustin will be found to excel in the intense apprehension of those great truths which pervade the whole of Sacred Writ, and in the vivid and powerful exposition of what bears upon them. It is hardly possible to read his practical and forcible applications of Holy Scripture, without feeling those truths by the faith of which we ought to live brought home to the heart in a wonderful manner. His was a mind that strove earnestly to solve the great problems of human life, and after exhausting the resources, and discovering the emptiness, of erroneous systems, found truth and rest at last in Catholic Christianity, in the religion of the Bible as expounded by St. Ambrose. And though we must look to his Confessions for the full view of all his cravings after real good, and their ultimate satisfaction, yet throughout his works we have the benefit of the earnestness with which he sought to feed on the “sincere milk of the word.”
